Hi Thomas, Thanks for the links. Someone on the team will start watching Shotwell package activity on the Fedora Bugzilla server regularly. Since Shotwell 0.10.x is no longer supported, we'll be focusing our attention on the Shotwell 0.12.3 bugs. If multiple users report an issue and if we can reproduce it in-house, we'll open an upstream bug ticket on the Yorba Redmine server and add a link to it on the Bugzilla ticket. That said, It may be a week or two before someone here at Yorba can find the time to comb through the accumulated bug reports.
At any rate, I'm the Shotwell lead developer. If you guys encounter a critical issue that involves crashes or, more importantly, user data loss (we actually did have one critical bug, now fixed in the 0.12.3 update, that could cause a user's entire tag collection to be deleted), feel free to email me tout de suite. Take care, Lucas On Mon, Jun 25, 2012 at 12:40 PM, Thomas Moschny <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Lucas, > >> We upstream developers would like to be notified whenever a user files >> a bug against the Shotwell package in Fedora, automated or otherwise. >> I know how to set up per-package notifications in bugzilla, but from >> your description of the ABRT system, it sounds like it may use a >> different notification pathway than just the standard Fedora bugzilla. >> >> So I ask you: what do we upstream developers need to do to be notified >> whenever a bug is filed against the Shotwell package in Fedora, >> without regard to whether the bug was filed automatically by ABRT or >> manually by a user opening a bugzilla ticket? > > Sorry if my mail wasn't clear wrt how abrt works.
